Since LadyBytes has "let the cat out of the bag", Yes, I did get my skyline last night (Friday). I drove it back from Sydney.

Its a stock R34 GTT with white enkie 17" wheels and and after market air filter (pod).

These photos are from carsales, as I havent conned Tuk Tuk to take any photos yet, I really need to give it a good clean, polish and wax first, but this should give you an idea.

I'm pretty over the moon with it, Now I gotta get its rego changed over which means a few things..

The pod isnt going to get over the pits, has anyone got a stock air filter I can borrow to get this over the pits?

Also, I'm going to need tyres. Michele told me to talk to you Mick about some road federals, I dont want the 595s - I'll kill myself with them :) I'll send you a PM.

Also, big thanks to Turismo for going and having a look at the car initially for me.

Now, I guess the fun begins....

Grats on the car,looks good, as long as the pods secured it should get passed by dickson as far as I know. I had my car switched late last year and back then at least pos were legal in the act.

Thanks CeJay, I might give Dickson a call - see if I can get any sence out of them!!!will be difficult!!!

I might have to go for a quick walk one arvo to check this driveway out! =D

Pete, were your ears burning yesterday?

An old friend of yours was asking why you weren't competing in the hillclimb yesterday... said you should get your @rse out there.

Yeah? I know a few people that it might be, care to narrow it down?

Also, do you guys see many Evos or Corollas in your little street of Skyliney goodness?

Does Corollas narrow it down enough or do you need more info?

We get Evos at the track... but managed to keep them under control the last two times, they're fast though and its about their turn to come up and whip our butts.

So when are you joining us at the track? Michael said you should be there.

Get your ass out there Pete! Would be interesting to see what your beast can do around the track! Also would be good to see if the look on your face is similar to most others when the 'little' corolla cruises through quicker than them...

Actually, i'm not quite at skyline level yet, but i'm getting closer. the best look of the day was when michele came through quicker than mark in the gtr!

So i'll see u there in november Pete? :rolleyes:

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
